Meyers wrote the script, which centers on a 70-year-old widower (De Niro) who discovers that retirement isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. Wanting to get back in the game, he becomes a senior intern at an online fashion site, run by Hathaway’s character.

Pearlman will play a newly hired intern whom De Niro takes under his wing.

Adam DeVine and Reid Scott are already on board the movie.

Pearlman is a comedian on the rise and is coming off of wrapping the first 10 episodes of the Fox comedy series Mulaney. He will return to the show after his production stint on Intern.

Pearlman also recently wrapped reshoots on the Lorne Michaels and John Goldwyn-produced feature Staten Island Summer, in which he appears alongside Kate Walsh, Gina Gershon and Ashley Greene. Paramount is due to release the movie in 2015.
